"Volume 6 of Saint Seiya contains some of THE most memorable episodes in the series, with the limelight split 50/50 on Sanctuary's new Silver henchmen and Dragon Shiryu himself. Episodes included on this disc are:

"Steel Saints - Friends or Foes?": With the Saints getting their collective behinds handed to them, three new myserious characters suddenly come to the rescue. Problem is, are these guys friendly, or is there an ulterior motives behind somewhere?

"Medusa's Shield!": Introducing Perseus Algol, one of the strongest Silver Saints to appear so far after Lizard Misty. Not only is Algol fast and powerful, he also has a deadly weapon on his left arm -- one that would make a certain ol' Greek gorgon proud.

"Dragon's Sacrifice Blow!": When Algol actually seems to deliver on what the past Silver assassins fail to do, things are on the bleak for our heroes, especially the lone Dragon Shiryu. With his comrades removed from the heat of battle, Shiryu will have to use every strength left to defeat the toughest Silver Saint from Sanctuary.

"Attack of The Crow Army!": Saori is kidnapped by the eccentric oddball Crow Jamian, and it's up to Pegasus Seiya to rescue her. However, things become increasingly complicated when his sworn enemy Shaina decides to throw herself into the mix...

"The Burning Cosmos of Love!": Shaina is hellbent on having Seiya's head, and Jamian is quite insistent on escorting Saori to his boss back in Greece. This doesn't bide well with our heroes, especially with an unconscious Seiya and a somewhat stagnant Saori.. until she begins to exhibit an unusually large cosmos."

Finally everything is getting really good

"Volume 6 of this classic anime brings quite a few surprises character related. It is great to see that the show has no reserves in screwing up the characters to move along. This volume answers a few things from the prvious volume, then goes on to other events, and how the enemy was defeated will leave you in shock. Then episode 30 has one magnificent scene between the lead male and female character, and is a legendary scene in anime. Overall, great volume, and awesome old achool series. Highly recommended."
